Once Upon an Eiffel Tower (T-shirts)

Maybe it is because it is spring that thoughts turn to romance and Paris. One of the most widely adopted iconic and romantic image of Paris is the Eiffel Tower. I may not be visiting Paris and this well known landmark any time soon, but I can still enjoy it by adopting it myself...as an addition to my wardrobe. Here are a few t-shirts I saw of the Eiffel Tower on YesStyle.com and Zazzle.com that I really am liking right now (plus a little something else).
The first is this Effel Tower t-shirt with the words, "Hello Paris" and "have you been to..." written on it. It is one of those loose, cozy kind of tees and comes in four different colors.

It's not a shirt, but I couldn't resist mentioning this pretty and sweet jewel Eiffel Tower keychain from Miss Girl that is available atYesStyle as well. The color is silver with a tower covered in rhinestones that is perched upon a clear crystal ball. It has a a "Miss Girl" charm on it as well. There is also a pretty white bow tied on it (that, alas, I do not think would last long in my purse). The site lists the measurements as Strap Length: 7cm / 2.8", Tower Length: 2.2cm / 0.9", and Tower Height: 6cm / 2.4". (I'm not quite sure what is the difference between the "Tower Length" and the "Tower Height.")

Over at Zazzle, designer GirlyTemplate has a few girly, Eiffel Tower t-shirt designs for us...all tied with pretty bows.


Here are a few more Paris with the Eiffel Tower inspired shirts I found on Zazzle to close. I'm off to dream of spring in France. Ooh, la, la!!!

Kawaii Furniture Socks

This is one of those products that I knew nothing about, didn't know they existed, until just today. Chair leg socks. But they can be used on any furniture with legs too, so really they are furniture socks. Protect your floor from getting scuffed and prevent you chairs feet and legs from getting scuffed and beat up too with these cutest little socks.

I think they would help add a little charm to a small apartment or cottage.

Here are some other styles that are available. I have to say that I think the strawberry socks for furniture legs are my favorite.


I also saw these style of "furniture socks" that are so pretty and frilly. They are kind of like mini drawstring pouches, with a leather-like base sewn to the bottom. The base part is especially a good idea. In fact, with the knit version it could be a good idea to sew or glue something like felt or faux leather to the bottom so they will last longer. They are not as tall as the knitted socks though.

I think it would be easy to make these yourself too...but they are fairly inexpensive so I think it makes sense to buy them instead. They also come in a few different colors or prints.
